Draft-template-image.png THIS PAGE IS A WORKING DRAFT Pencil-emoji U270F-gray.png
The page may be difficult to navigate, and some information on its subject might be incomplete and/or evolving rapidly.
If you have any questions or ideas, please add them as a new topic on the discussion page.

This is both the agenda and the goals landing page for the Test Development and Automation team for Q2 2009. This is not official yet. It is in draft form.

Test Automation

Proposal (ctalbert): Greening Tinderboxes

  • Institute a measuring system for tinderbox realibility
  • Debug the known, observed, random failures, create a plan for handling random failures going forward.

Proposal (ctalbert): Close loop on Automation Suites

  • Is there automation work required for JS Tests?
  • Enable Build/Test infrastructure to run Mozmill tests (unit tests at least)
    • Have Mozmill tests running automatically, reporting to results server and/or staging tboxes (as appropriate)
  • Integrate Maemkit with Tinderbox, hand off to build

Test Development

Proposal (ctalbert): Expanding Test Coverage

  • Shared Team Goal to increase test coverage by X amount, where X is a measurement of reducing in-test-suite-? areas and improving code coverage numbers on previously untouched pieces of code.
    • Use code coverage results to identify functions within each team member's code area that are not covered well (< 40%)
    • Attempt to identify any in-test-suite-? bugs that also address this area
    • Create a list of the Y most wanted tests from the intersection of these points
    • Write those tests to target those lines of code and/or the address the concerns raised w.r.t. to the in-test-suite-? flag

Community Leadership

Proposal (ctalbert): Use the "Most Wanted List" to expand code coverage

  • Take the "Expanding Test Coverage" goal's "most wanted list" in each area and invite QA Community members (via QMO) and Development Community Members to help address these areas. This is crucial as most of the time we'll need the dev community to tell us how to write these tests anyway, so it makes sense for them to be working on these alongside us.

Test Tools

Proposal (ctalbert): Release a redesigned QAC

Proposal (ctalbert): Mozmill 1.2 (or 1.1.1) Maintenance Release

Proposal (ctalbert): Results Server Should be Reporting Mozmill Results

Personal Goals

Clint

  • Help achieve the "Greener Tinderbox" goal by leading that project
  • Do 10 phone screens to find candidates to fill our top two Test Dev Positions
  • Aid with the "Expanding Test Coverage" by working in the Content area until we get help there
  • Continue to lower the barrier to entry and create visibility for Test Dev by blogging biweekly and working with QMO
